Remark [added January 2012]: In a many ways, Brother USA's
GeoBook / SuperPowerNote range of notebook computers anticipated
the success of "netbooks" by almost a decade when they were
released in 1999: they combined a laptop-style form factor with
Internet capability and an attempt to significantly reduce the
price point through the use of an inexpensive, x86-based hardware
design, solid-state disks and and an operating system that was
optimized for low resource consumption (PC/GEOS).

As this project hasn't even made it onto Wikipedia yet, I am
preserving some of my notes on the internals of the device here -
some more details can be found (in German) on the GeosWiki
page.

And finally: Development of
applications
specifically for the GeoBook can make use of the same tools
available to other
Geos platforms. (Note that debugging on the actual device is
not possible
using any of the retail SDKs for Geos because the symbol
files are not
included. I suggest contacting Brother directly if you are
serious about
this.)
